Oh an innocent man
came into the land
teaching all men to love and be free
And the people all cried
"with him on our side,
surely now we will have victory"
But his life he laid down
and in sin he did drown
as darkness covered over the land
But he conquered my pride
and sin, it did die
given into redeemer's hand
Then the morning awoke
bringing freedom and hope
for those who were trapped beneath shame
For he ransomed the lost
at the foot of the cross
bringing vic'try in the power of his name
Yeah, the vic'try was won
by the life of the Son
heaven's gates flung open-- so wide!
And the darkness has lost
at the foot of the cross
and our king is waiting inside
And our freedom has come--
every battle was won--
when the stone went rolling away
As the morning star dawned
and our chains are all gone
oh sing what a glorious day
There's an old broken cross
that was conquered for us
and heaven smiles down from above
Now the king with no land
and nail scarred hands
singing "come be renewed by love"

Recently I published my first novel, The Burning Ones, a sword-and-sorcery-and-cyborg adventure balancing the youthful angst of a coming-of-age story with the realities of a world plagued by war.
